No race of men can surpass the Chinese in htlbIlS of industry .‘lnd thrift, says D. Z. Sheffield in the At- Iiintic. With the introduction of “'estern civilization the vast. re- sources of the country will be devel- oped, the products of the soil and manufacture will indefinitely inâ€" creiise, and domestic and internaâ€" tional trade will be multiplied in its proportioms. Now, in all this maâ€" terial regeneration of China natives will trike part. Not :1 dollar will be gathered from the soil. from trade, from mines. from msLi‘Jsciories. without his securing a due proportion as a reward for his share in the enterprise. He will piltl- snily and faithfully work for amasâ€" ter for liqu a generation, and in the second thf be will appear as his Own master, at the head of s. thrivrng lbusiness. Thus. in the industries of the fut- ure. wherever there is work to be done there will be found Chinese ready to "sell strength.‘ as working for hire is called in China; and they Will. sell more strength for the money than will men of any other nation. Again, one dollar in the hands ofs f‘ortzi'ble support to an average fami- ly, Three dollars a. month. or thirty-six dollars a year. cover the livrng in- come of a Chinese family of lhe working class. In short. the Chinese will survwe and prosper under I'Oll- ditions of life which would discourage ABOUT LIGHTNING.

' ____H THE FATHER 0F PRINTING. men I ever saw. â€"â€" llundrcdlll AunlvrrsnI-y of Johann Gulcnberg Ilei‘ciilly ('clclprnlrll. The city of Mnyencs, in Germany, has recently celebrated the five blun- dredtb anniversary of the birth of lJohaunn Gutenberg, who is commonly believed to have been the first mun to make and use movable types. Gut- enberg was a native of Mayence. It 1was in that pleasant city by the Rhine that he executed the “Gutenberg Bible," one of the rarest gems of the great libraries. In Mziyence he died- tin povertyâ€"at about the age of fifty- l-‘Ivc eight. A feature of this Gutenberg festival was an exhibition of the best things the printer's art has produced during 'fivc hundred years. It seemed strange to army of the visitors that in some idii‘ections there bus been so little iguin. NVe of. the uinteenih century l can barely surpass the beauty of the lmsstei‘pieces that issued from the press which Aldus Manutius set up at Venice in 1490.
